And that's perfectly fine, great even, no problem with that at all! What makes me personally extremely angry and frustrated is the level of *aggresive* marketing and promotion of OpenSolaris as the be-all, end-all, "the next big thing", "THE Solaris.Next" and "use it today!", and then when one does actually attempt to use it and finds all these deficiencies, only THEN do the excuses start: "yeah there are problems, but hey, it's OpenSolaris, so we still love him, right?" "yeah it's not perfect, but it's the way to go" "yeah it doesn't do that, that, AND no, it doesn't do that either, but it's really GREAT!" So in the end it turns out that the only thing OpenSolaris does do is be a "we're still working on that feature" DESKTOP OS. So if it's not cooked, by the admission of the very people that work on it, why is it being PUSHED so AGGRESIVELY by the people at Sun? I can't even begin to pour in words my frustration and how angry that makes me, but believe me, it makes me very, very angry and frustrated. -- This message posted from opensolaris.org _______________________________________________ opensolaris-discuss mailing list [email protected]
